Do you come here often? Did it hurt when you fell from Heaven? Can I buy you something as sweet and intoxicating as you are? The list of old pick-up lines is endless.

When ‘No thanks’ or ‘Leave me alone’ doesn’t seem to dissuade the determined chat-up artist, this trick is sure to work.

Katrina Dewees-Steele has posted a video on YouTube – titled Anyone afraid of spiders? – that is sure to give some people nightmares… and will just leave the rest of us with a weird taste in the mouth.

The Tempe, Arizona, native smiles for the camera as the video starts innocently enough.

But if at first you think the most shocking thing is her green hair, or the fact that she’s wearing a cap with ‘Take your panties off’ written on it, keep watching (and you might want to be sitting down).

Katrina opens her mouth and a truly enormous spider emerges, crawling out over her lips and chin and finally coming to rest on her cheek.

If you haven’t fainted by this time, Katrina smiles again to show that both human and spider are happy in each other’s company.

The spider in question is a golden huntsman, not considered dangerous to humans but one of the largest in North America.

Its scientific name is olios gigantea, which Katrina will agree is a bit of a mouthful.
